So I changed my control arm on my 2002 P5 the other day and when I went to put in the new one I had a problem with the bolt that goes through the bushing...It was hard to get that bolt free but I just kept on it and it came out...So when I was putting it back in the bolt just continues to turn even after it's all the way in...I have seen a couple posts on here about similar issues...But no answer to my problem...I just turned it until it was all the way in and drove it like that for a day or two...When I went and checked on it the bolt was almost out...Other people were talking about using a torch and cutting it open or something but I don't have a torch or the skill to do something like that...Is there some alternative way like maybe getting a nut with some thread locker on it and get it in above the bushing? I realize it has to leave the bushing free to move as the vehicle turns, so maybe just leaving it as much free movement as possible but getting something to hold it in above it...
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
